CORE TRAINING: THE CHOICE - GETTING OUT OF THE BOX
Format: one 8-hour day.
The Choice is how we begin all our work with individuals, families, organizations, corporations, schools, treatment programs, governmental agencies, humanitarian groups and helping professionals. Participants learn what the box of self-deception is, how we get in it, and how to get out. They discover that self-deception is at the heart of most "people problems" in the organization and learn the extent to which we, as people, contribute to the problems we often believe are caused by others.
The Choice gives participants the keys to focusing on results in areas such as individual growth, relationships, effective leadership, communication, conflict resolution, team-building, alignment, accountability, trust, motivation, cooperation, vision creation and buy-in, decision-making, merging of organizational cultures, and labor relations.
The Choice covers:
Way of Being: The Source of Influence
- Our influence does not come from what we do, as most people think. It comes from something deeper, which Arbinger calls a "Way of Being".
- There are two basic Ways of Being: "The Responsive Way" and "The Resistant Way".
The Choice That Determines Way Of Being
- How individuals move from one "Way of Being" to the other.
- Predictable consequences of each way.
When The Resistant Way Becomes Characteristic
- How the "Resistant Way" becomes habitual - and the inevitable negative consequences.
- How to recognize our own resistant ways.
The Effect Of The Resistant Way On Others
- A person who is being resistant invites resistance in others. This spreads resistance throughout the organization, undercutting the effectiveness of each individual and the achievement of organizational objectives.
- We can become unwittingly devoted to self-protection and justification rather than achieving results.
Becoming Responsive: Getting Out Of The Box
- The practical way to get out of the box and stay out.
- How to apply the process in an area where being in the box has caused problems.
The impact is profound and lasting.
